Mrs. Sinclair was a lovely white

pathetic and wide of the mark in

Sinclair. "I've seen her put her
Knitted stripes together to make hei

Beware
Of the Knife.
Mr. Lincoln Nelson of Marshfield Mo.
'writes: "For sir )-cara thavc been t
sufferer from a scrofulous affection ol
tlie glands of my neck and all efforts
of physicians In Washington D. C
Springfield 111. and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After si
months" constant treatment here mj
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthiscritical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju
dice against all patent medicines 1 be-
gan its use. Before I had used one bot-
tle the enlargement began to disappear
and now it is entirely gorte though I am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago
I would have escaped years of misery
and saved over Jim."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good ttnd even
their resorts to the knife prove cither
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root ol
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently. S.S'.S. guaranteed .purely vegetable)

With a Mitchell wagon and was
pleased just as every freighter
who is using one is. The Mitch-
ell is undoubtedly the Monarch
of the oad. "As good as the
Mitchell" is the highest compli-

Mitchell has always been the
Standard of excellence . yet we
